Product Description

Review
'His tales have pulse-pounding narrative drive. Niven is a true master!' Frederik Pohl

Product Description
Ringworld: the most stunning artifact in known space, an articficial world with three million times Earth's surface area. Who built it? And where are they? In this stunning sequel to Larry Niven's Hugo and Nebula award-winning novel, Louis Wu (now a near-hopeless lirehead hooked on electrical ecstasy), the aged Kzin warrior, Speaker-to-Animals, and the Hindmost, puppeteer mate of mad Nessus, return to Ringworld. Their aim is to prevent cataclysm. IN the process, they find themselves learning Ringworld's incredible secrets...

5.0 out of 5 stars An exellent book that deserves to be a bestseller, 7 April 2000
By A Customer
The Ringworld engineers is a fantastic book in evey sense of th word. The plot keeps you gripped to the edge of your seat, the characters are imaginative and well designed and the technical details of the Ringworld itself are impressive to eveyone who understands suspension bridges. Larry Niven, I congragulate you on your writing skills!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best of the best, 22 Sep 2003
By Benny (Sydney, Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ringworld Engineers (Mass Market Paperback)
This is the sequel to Ringworld. It is an absolute must to read. One of the best books I have read.
This is truly vintage Larry Niven and one of the reasons he's so popular.

By A Customer
This is a very good book with plenty of ideas and a good plot, although its not quite as good as its predecessor.
